Celebrate summer! It’s the time to lighten up and brighten up your routine by trying something new. So why don’t you…
Swap your heavier winter fragrance for a zesty, clean citrus scent.
Indulge in the wonderful fruits that summer has to offer. Keep sliced mangoes and pineapples in the fridge for a quick “pick me up”.
Purr-fect your style with a pair of retro chic, cat eye sunglasses. Avoid crow’s feet tan lines by not squinting into the sun.
Trade your snow skis for water skis…and ice skates for roller blades.
See with fresh eyes. Make eye pads out of cucumber slices. It’s believed that this is a natural way to revive tired eyes and reduce puffiness.
Go for the bold – add an intense pop of electric neon to your wardrobe. We’re talking luminous greens, yellows, pinks and oranges.
Dress in delicious ice cream inspired pastels. Layer them to sweeten the look.
Live the high life by parasailing or skydiving.
Create a summer playlist. There’s nothing like classic Beach Boys to release “good vibrations”.
Reinvent “fine dining” by taking it outdoors and setting the table with colorful plastic glasses and plates to spice up the atmosphere. Bonus – they’re shatter-proof.
Change your handscape. Pamper overexposed “outdoor” hands (and feet while you’re at it) with rich, restorative creams. Showoff smooth hands and feet with bright cheery polish.
Replace processed sugary snacks with natural sweet blueberries containing essential antioxidants for healthy skin and hair.
Forget fussy hair and just pony up. Slicked back, pulled high, slung low or mutli-sectioned, the ponytail is always in style.
Adopt healthy, ageless skincare habits like wearing sunscreen every day.
The ultimate summer refreshment.
Mix it up, pour yourself a tall one and relax while contemplating all the refreshing ways to change up your summer.
